The MagicBand, the colorful wristband guests wear at Walt Disney World Resort, makes each visit even simpler and more seamless. With MagicBands no longer being complimentary with resort stays, Disney Imagineers have continued to invent and innovate, and soon, we’ll be debuting a new option: Disney MagicMobile service!
Launching in phases starting later this year, Disney MagicMobile service is a convenient and contactless way to access MagicBand features like theme park entry through the power of an iPhone, Apple Watch or other smart device. Guests will be able to create a Disney MagicMobile pass through the My Disney Experience app and add it to their smart device’s digital wallet. It works like magic – most features will be available by just holding up your smart device near an access point, just like you do with a MagicBand. Disney MagicMobile service and its features will roll out first on Apple devices.
Guests may choose to use Disney MagicMobile service or a MagicBand – pick whichever option works best during their visit. You can even use both and alternate between the two for added flexibility. If you are a fan of MagicBands, be sure to be on the lookout for new trendy colors and fun designs featuring your favorite Disney characters and stories.
The digital room key feature will continue to be available specifically within the My Disney Experience app, which helps guests expedite their arrival by using online check-in service, going directly to their Disney Resort hotel room, and using their phone to unlock their door. Disney Resort hotel guests may also still pick up a Key to the World card at their convenience by visiting the front desk.
Stay tuned for more information on Disney MagicMobile service and MagicBands!
